Progress Reports update

[Skyler Fire]

On progress reports or transmission of higher alarm the Incident Commanders name or who is giving the report must be said over the air.

For example…

Division 3 to Manhattan ; by orders of Deputy Chief “Name” special call 2 trucks

Battalion 18 to the Bronx ; by orders of Acting Battalion Chief “Name” transmit the 2nd Alarm

Division 14 to Queens ; we are under control by orders of Acting Deputy Chief “Name”

Heard that recently. Figured it was new

Does anybody know what the logic behind this is? Not looking for guesses - I'm looking to know if anybody knows the actual reason for the change. The change seems fine but I am curious what the difference is if someone says Squad 99 to Manhattan transmit a second alarm versus Squad 99 to Manhattan, by orders of SkylerFire, transmit a second alarm. I assume if they're changing this they have good reason to do so I just can't figure out what it would be.

Staff wants to know who is making the calls. And progress reports
